The Vikings and sainthood are not concepts normally found side by side. But Norway’s King Olaf II Haraldsson (c. 995-1030) embodied both to an extraordinary degree. As a battle-eager teenager he almost single-handedly pulled down London Bridge (as in the nursery rhyme) and took part in many other Viking raids. Olaf lacked none of the traditional Viking qualities of toughness and audacity, yet his routine baptism grew into a burning missionary faith that was all the more remarkable for being combined with his typically Viking determination and energy—and sometimes ruthlessness as well.

In Wahrheit ist ein Wald nicht still. Er ist voller Geräusche und aus dem Stoff, aus dem Albträume sind. Ein abgelegenes Dorf hoch oben in den Wäldern, fernab der Zivilisation. Ein Ort, wie geschaffen als Versteck – oder als Gefängnis. Hoch in den Bergen liegt die Siedlung Jakobsleiter, abgeschieden von der modernen Welt. Hier gelten die Regeln der Natur – rau, erbarmungslos, aber verlässlich. Das denkt zumindest Jesse. Ihm und den anderen Kindern von Jakobsleiter wurde eingetrichtert, dass alles Böse unten in der Stadt wohnt.

Politicians are consistently voted the least trusted professional group by the UK public. They've recently become embroiled in scandals concerning sexual harassment and expenses. Every year, they introduce new legislation that doesn't do what it sets out to achieve - often with terrible financial and human costs. But, with some notable exceptions, they are decent, hardworking people doing a hugely difficult and demanding job. In this searching examination of our political class, award-winning journalist Isabel Hardman tries to square this circle.
